Report written by Katie Carew-Robinson (she/her)

Mrs S has recently returned home from hospital and needed some shopping.

She's still in pain which has meant she's not been eating very much but she has been having snacks and sandwiches. She's been trying to drink lots to make sure she stays hydrated. We got a list together from her and she checked her cupboards, she still had plenty of tins and bits to make a meal for when she feels up to a full meal.

We headed off to Lidl and bought milk, bread, butter, strawberry milk, juice, crisps and we managed to find some instant caramel lattes on offer. We even got to take some change back to Mrs S.

She was very grateful and said we had brought happiness into her day.
